Artists paint London's streets - 11th September 2020
This big painting is a mural. There is a mural festival in London.
150 artists are at the festival. They are painting 60 murals around London.
They paint the murals in public places. On walls of houses, arts centres and public areas.
D*Face is an artist. He is from the UK.
D*Face: "So, each mural takes, each mural takes about a week of pre-planning and then about a week of painting. So irrespective of the scale, they generally take 5 to 7 days."
Every artist has a personal style. They plan the mural with the building’s owner.
Lee Bofkin works for the London Mural Festival.
Bofkin: "We believe, strongly, that our city should be painted more. They encourage people to slow down, to have new conversations, to appreciate their environment a bit more, to get off their phone a little bit. Or, to share it on their phone but encourage other people to leave the house a bit."
The festival is in September. But artists hope the murals will stay for a long time.
